point to the bootstrap kit for NetBSD/powerpc I'm hosting at the
moment.
Also add the bits I used when cross-building the NetBSD/powerpc
rust on amd64, commented out, as well as the gcc / c++ wrapper
script I used in the process.
The changes affecting other ports are:
* We now add LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the make environment, so that
if the bootstrap kit binaries and shared libraries don't have
the $ORIGIN-style RPATH entries, it will still work
* The bootstrap.py script has been changed to turn off the
generation of debuginfo in "RUSTFLAGS"; for some so far unknown
reason, the NetBSD/powerpc rust will not build if you ask for
debug info. This could perhaps have been made OS-variant dependent,
but isn't at the moment.
So .. bump PKGREVISION.
Bumping buildlink3.mk required because the reporter mentions having
to do this because of a time-consuming incompatibility in p6-zip.
Unclear if the packages are independent, so updating together.
No changelog found.
From tomasz motyl in PR pkg/53663
Don't inline push with more than 1 argument
A vulnerability where the JavaScript JIT compiler inlines Array.prototype.push with multiple arguments that results in the stack pointer being off by 8 bytes after a bailout. This leaks a memory address to the calling function which can be used as part of an exploit inside the sandboxed content process.
Bump PKGREVISION
go1.11.1 (released 2018/10/01) includes fixes to the compiler, documentation,
go command, runtime, and the crypto/x509, encoding/json, go/types, net,
net/http, and reflect packages. See the Go 1.11.1 milestone on our issue
tracker for details.
Also correct the PLIST and use ln -sf instead of ln -s.
Changelog:
What’s new in 0.19.0
The nil state for strings/seqs is gone. Instead the default value for these is "" / @[]. Use --nilseqs:on for a transition period. This eliminates a large class of bugs that used to plague the average Nim code out there, including Nim’s standard library.
Accessing the binary zero terminator in Nim’s native strings is now invalid. Internally a Nim string still has the trailing zero for zero-copy interoperability with cstring. Compile your code with the new switch --laxStrings:on if you need a transition period.
These changes to strings and seqs give us more flexibility in how they are implemented and indeed alternative implementations are in development.
experimental is now a pragma and a command line switch that can enable specific language extensions, it is not an all-or-nothing switch anymore. We think this leads to a more robust development process where it’s clearly documented which parts of Nim are bleeding edge and which parts can be relied upon.
Other notable language additions:
Dot calls combined with explicit generic instantiations can now be written as x.y[:z] which is transformed into y[z](x) by the parser.
func is now an alias for proc {.noSideEffect.}.
Anonymous tuples with a single element can now be written as (1,) with a trailing comma.
In order to make for loops and iterators more flexible to use Nim now supports so called “for-loop macros”. See the manual for more details. This feature enables a Python-like generic enumerate implementation.
Case statements can now be rewritten via macros. See the manual for more information. This feature enables custom pattern matching.
The command syntax now supports keyword arguments after the first comma.
Thread-local variables can now be declared inside procs. This implies all the effects of the global pragma.
Nim now supports the except clause in the export statement.
Range float types, example range[0.0 .. Inf]. More details in language manual.
Breaking changes to be mindful of
The default location of nimcache for the native code targets was changed. Read the compiler user guide for more information.
Lots of deprecated symbols in the standard library that have been deprecated for quite some time now like system.expr or the old type aliases starting with a T or P prefix have been removed.
The exception hierarchy was slightly reworked, SystemError was renamed to CatchableError and is the new base class for any exception that is guaranteed to be catchable. This change should have minimal impact on most existing Nim code.
Async improvements
The “closure iterators” that Nim’s async macro is based on has been rewritten from the ground up and so async works completely with exception handling. Finally it is possible to use await in a try statement!
Nimble 0.9.0
This release includes a brand new version of Nimble. The new version contains a breaking change which you should read up on if you own hybrid packages. There are also the usual bug fixes and this release contains a lot of them.
The standard library's str::repeat function contained an out of bounds
write caused by an integer overflow. This has been fixed by
deterministically panicking when an overflow happens.
Replacements: the versioned lang/go19, lang/go110 and lang/go111.
Nothing in pkgsrc directly depends on this anymore. There are a few
stragglers in wip, which will be fixed.

This moves builds of packages using Go off the unversioned lang/go package
and onto Go 1.11 or Go 1.9 (on NetBSD 6) by default.
There is a new, user-settable variable GO_VERSION_DEFAULT.
NOTE: not all Go packages completely implement this yet. For example,
net/syncthing does its own thing. This will be fixed.
A native Python cross-version decompiler and fragment decompiler. The successor
to decompyle, uncompyle, and uncompyle2.
uncompyle6 translates Python bytecode back into equivalent Python source code.
It accepts bytecodes from Python version 1.3 to version 3.7, spanning over 22
years of Python releases. We include Dropbox's Python 2.5 bytecode and some
PyPy bytecode.
This package uses Jay Earley's algorithm for parsing context free grammars, and
comes with some generic Abstract Syntax Tree routines. There is also a
prototype scanner which does its job by combining Python regular expressions.
(SPARK stands for Scanning, Parsing, and Rewriting Kit. It is a poor name since
it conflicts with a more popular package of the same name. In the future we
will rename this.)
Back-port perl commit 3d5e9c119db6b727684fe75dfcfe5831c4351bec to
fix a file descriptor leak in in-place editing which is breaking
the build of xentools48. Should fix PR 53578. Bump PKGREVISION.
This uses a similar approach as go111. Its revision is one higher than
the existing lang/go.
Next steps:
- make builds use this for dependent packages
- delete lang/go to complete the move
This installs the go tool as go111; all the supporting files go under
$PREFIX/go111, so it does not conflict with other Go versions. Go packages
in pkgsrc do not use it to build yet.
Changes:
There are many changes and improvements to the toolchain, runtime, and
libraries, but two features stand out as being especially exciting: modules
and WebAssembly support.
This release adds preliminary support for a new concept called "modules," an
alternative to GOPATH with integrated support for versioning and package
distribution. Module support is considered experimental, and there are still
a few rough edges to smooth out, so please make liberal use of the issue
tracker.
Go 1.11 also adds an experimental port to WebAssembly (js/wasm). This allows
programmers to compile Go programs to a binary format compatible with four
major web browsers.
